## About
John Faxon is the Chief Strategy Officer and co-founder of VeriSightIQ, a platform built on a simple, overdue premise: companies that outsource IT and cybersecurity deserve an independent, evidence-based way to know if their provider is actually performing well, not just a vendor's self-reported assurances. Before VeriSightIQ, John spent two decades in enterprise IT and information security leadership, where he experienced firsthand what happens when a managed service relationship quietly stops delivering strategic value, long before anyone files a formal complaint. That pattern, the 'silent exit' where dissatisfaction never surfaces until a company has already decided to leave, became the founding insight behind VeriSightIQ's approach: measuring forward-looking confidence, not just backward-looking satisfaction. John also leads Risk and Insight Group, where he advises organizations on technology and security risk strategy, and he approaches new ideas the same way he approaches vendor claims, with healthy skepticism and a preference for evidence over assertion. He is a vocal advocate for primary research before product-building, having built VeriSightIQ's own roadmap around direct interviews and structured data rather than assumption.
